yes we did, verity grants him his request, and in that skill'dream' they see molly giving herself willingly to burrich. in her defense, she believed him death, nonetheless, fitz was believed death for less than a year. wich is rather short, even if she was in difficult circumstances.

Every single time I read this topic I am inclined to read that series again from start to finish! God I loved Nighteyes! Favorite fantasy character of all time for me.

I also didn't like Molly much. I couldn't believe it when they ended up together in the Tawny Man - evidently I'm not much of a romantic, 'cause I had her definitely pinned down as his first love and assumed he'd move on. Like you, I think their relationship wasn't really based on substance, more on physicality.

That is important too, also she was his sanity. (though this is perhaps a bit too strong a word.) He has always admired her, and he wanted a normal life.

I liked that he got back with Molly, much better then some new woman. Just as i liked the fact that he never got to know his mother, even after meetng her as a little boy on the market afterwards.

Good point - we don't need a tearful family reunion in every story.
